50TH AAFF TOUR AT SHADOW ART FAIR

July 21st, 2012 10:00pm

Corner Brewery, Ypsilanti, MI

Admission: $0.02

Catch a selection of short films from the upcoming 50th AAFF Traveling Tour programs this Saturday, July 21st during the Shadow Art Fair at Corner Brewery in Ypsilanti.

We are very pleased to again be working with the awesome folks at SAF. The day long event brings together a curated array of local art vendors and musicians yearly in July. The brewery environment makes it easy for guests and vendors to hang out, have conversations, and to spend a leisurely time there. So what better than an outdoor screening of films to wind down the event!?

Come have a beer, check out the vendors and bands, then take in some films!

Films to be screened at the 2012 Shadow Art Fair:

Life and Freaky Times of Uncle Luke

The Deep Dark

Moxie
